Largest supercharged piston I've flown is the Hercules 14 cyl. sleeve valve radial.
IIRC, to re-start in the air: RPM lever out of feather and press feathering button had it windmilling merrily away. Lot of push in that Q formula.
(There were some other things to actually get it to run - fuel and ignition would probably help )
